Game Design: Dragon's Gold
Background
Dragon's Gold is a board game by Bruno Faidutti (http://faidutti.free.fr/). It is also known under the name Drachengold. It's a negotiation game with a fantasy theme; players use their cards to kill dragons and then negotiate about how the dragon's treasure should be divided. Task: To turn the board game €œDragon's Gold€ into an online version, thus making a screen-based GUI to it.
Solution
The solution is too complex to be presented in detail here but the goal was to simulate the real look and feel of the game. This exercise gave me the first taste of game and interaction design. It was also an introduction to work in groups.
